VB has the concept of a user Type. A user can define a Type which can then be used to define variables which have one or more properties, each with its own type. The closest Python equivalent is a bare class. VB User Types are converted to bare classes with the appropriate properties. When a user Type is used, an istance of the class is created in the Python code.
Class properties are defined in an __init__ method to avoid having mutable class properties.
VB:
Type Point X As Single Y As Single End Type ' Type Line2D Start As Point Finish As Point End Type ' Dim p1 As Point, p2 As Point p1.X = 10 p1.Y = 20 p2.X = 30 p3.Y = 40 ' Dim l1 As Line2D l1.Start = p1 l1.Finish = p2
There are no options specific to the Type statement.
